Day 1

Transfer to Lake Mburo National Park

Transfer to Lake Mburo National Park

The transfer to Lake Mburo isn’t just a ride it’s a transition into stillness, beauty, and soft adventure. As the road winds through quiet hills, you begin to feel the rhythm of the wild calling. Lake Mburo greets you not with crowds or noise, but with open savannahs, tranquil lakes, and wildlife that moves at the pace of peace. It’s the only park in Uganda where you can walk among zebras, ride past impalas, or glide across the water beside hippos. Each experience is close, personal, and unforgettable. You don’t just observe nature here you become part of it. Ideal for solo travelers, couples, and seekers of slower safaris, Lake Mburo offers connection, charm, and calm in every corner. Booking this journey isn’t about ticking boxes; it’s about choosing grace over rush, and immersion over itinerary. Let the wild slow you down, and Lake Mburo will fill you back up.

Cycling safari and transfer to Bwindi

This journey begins not with a roar, but with a rhythm the quiet hum of your tires rolling through Lake Mburo’s golden savannah.

It’s not just adventure it’s intimacy with the wild. Then, the road rises and the landscape shifts. You’re transferred toward Bwindi, where the forest thickens and the air grows sacred. The transition is cinematic from open plains to misty mountains. And when you finally stand before the gorillas, you’ll know: this wasn’t just a journey across Uganda.

And just when you think the day can’t hold more, the road calls. You’re transferred to Fort Portal, winding through crater lakes, tea plantations, and misty hills that feel like a dream unfolding.
